ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Formerly Desktop Central

We use ManageEngine Endpoint Central as our primary software for managing security patches on our corporate assets. We needed to automate the patch management process and avoid doing updates manually on hundreds of servers and clients. In addition, we needed to perform patching within a short time of vulnerabilities coming out. Manually we were taking too long. So we searched and found the perfect software for our needs which was ManageEngine Endpoint Central. It helps us quickly update assets by automating most of the actions we used to perform manually. It also has dashboards that quickly allow us to have an eye on the overall situation of our corporate fleet.

ManageEngine's Endpoint Central is the one-stop tool to manage all my computer assets from a single dashboard. It keeps track of the health status, patching levels, vulnerabilities, etc. It has helped me to deploy software to systems that are remote, WFH, and located at different geographies.

Generally we use the ManageEngine tool especially for Patching the Cumulative updates and Security updates primarily. and then we use mostly for 3rd Party patching as well.

<div>We use endpoint central daily. We have it perform automatic and scheduled updates of all versions of Windows (PC and Server editions) and Microsoft Office. In addition, the tool is invaluable in that it offers our IT staff remote control for support purposes of all machines on the domain, even those that reside in remote locations (using VPN). <br></div><div>We also use the tool to exclude or remove certain updates that are known to cause issues. Another frequent use is the ability to monitor software/hardware inventories and manage software installed, very useful for detecting risky or out of date 3rd party software. Having purchased the addon package of endpoint security, we can also centrally manage Bitlocker encryption for all machines (encrypt/decrypt on the fly, even if users lost their Bitlocker passwords, this product allows IT admins to see the Bitlocker key and use it to unlock their PC's). All in all, this is a time saving, efficiency increasing tool, that allows one IT person to perform the work of many others. It is highly recommended.<br></div>

ManageEngine Endpoint Central (formerly Desktop Central) has been implemented in our environment to help us manage our devices as an alternative to other solutions like SCCM or Intune. It is intended to allow us to remotely support all of our Windows 10, and now Windows 11, devices in the environment. It is intended to allow us to manage software deployments, keep software up to date, approve patches, and assist users who are down and not able to get access to their devices.

ManageEngine Endpoint Central is pretty important in our daily use. We have the agent installed on all computers allowing us to remote in to support a user at the most opportune time for them. We also implement the patching system, which, while it feels a little clunky sometimes, is a great help in keeping our devices secure.

Endpoint Central is a very diverse and powerful product - and I really like it. Easy deployment of Microsoft and Third Party Updates Deploy Images to Dissimilar hardware Deploy, scripts, software Compliance - block software - Powershell Remote tools, System, Remote Support Inventory, Hardware/Software

The ManageEngine Endpoint Central tool is a great tool for IT support. The GUI is quite intuitive and doesn't require a lot of time to learn. Set up was easy to follow, and we were able to implement the solution within a couple weeks. Endpoint Central provides us with an easy to see view of our systems for patch management and vulnerabilities. Affordable tool with clear and concise

It helps us with our patch management process, quickly updating Operating Systems, fast deploying, and keeping everything more secure. When we have some critical security updates to do or have to remote access one of our end users' machines, it works pretty well. It helps with compliance with the main standards too.

I manage from there all the PCs of my company, previously we had to travel to all our remote agencies which generates high costs, but now with the help of the tool we have been able to have a more timely and accurate control over the PCs without traveling, this tool we have deployed in all the PCs of the company.

We use Endpoint Central for controlling our remote computers, patching and, software deployment. It is also a useful tool for reporting on device inventories and software requirements. It makes it easy to see missing and available patches as well as third party software updates for 500+ laptops that are currently in use across the country.

I use Manageengine Endpoint Central for patch management, remote support, inventory collection, and mobile device management. It helps me keep up with compliance while providing a central tool for everyday tasks like troubleshooting and remote support. It's a great tool for monitoring software licensing compliance as well. It basically makes my job a lot easier.

We utilise ManageEngine Endpoint Central to manage and secure approx. 2000 devices ranging from laptops, servers as well as more than 1000 mobile devices with the MDM add-on. Our people are spread all over the country, hence a tool that can manage (and secure) all of these devices in much detail was needed and this product has helped us significantly in achieving this.

I'm using ManageEngine Desktop Central for remote control of PC/Laptops in my organization. It is one of the most secure and reliable remote access software. The connection is very stable. I can manage the systems by IP or computer name by syncing my Active Directory. It can quickly transfer files which [are] mostly needed to copy a patch file or software. It is easy to manage and deployment of ManageEngine Desktop Central is very easy. I have added [the] Desktop Central agent file in my custom windows ISO and it is totally working fine when I installed windows [on] PC/Laptops. No need to install it again which is a time saver. Besides remotely accessing and transferring files, there is also [a] telnet option as well as we can uninstall specific computer installed software without accessing the computer which is a very good option for IT engineers and tt has a better user interface.

We use it for the whole organization. Before the pandemic, all the users were working at the office, but since March 2020 all went to work on the home office scheme, then, we published the Desktop Central Server (because we use the on-premise version) to reach all user's computers. We can face the computers scanning and keep them updated using the Patch Management module, then, we make sure that all the computers and servers are up to date. Additionally, we can provide remote support to our end users to solve daily common issues like email fetching, web apps logins, etc. That remote support allows file transfer, chat, audio or video call with the end-user (among others).

Desktop Central is used by IT to manage the EndPoints (computers and Servers). It allows support team to connect remotely and allows us to push software and different configurations. It keeps an inventory of assets and updates endpoints for Microsoft and 3rd party software.

I use ManageEngine Desktop Central with numerous environments to consolidate various needs such as inventory, patch, and remote management.

We use ManageEngine Desktop Central to automate desktop management, take control of remote desktops, deploy patches, and deploy software. ManageEngine Desktop Central is being used across the entire organization, approximately 200 people in 7 locations.

We use ManageEngine for systems inventory and patch management across our organization. ManageEngine maintains a list of all PC's in our organization for Audit compliance. We also use ManageEngine to patch Microsoft and third-party software on all systems for security and audit compliance. We also use the remote desktop function for some support cases.

We use this program across the entire company. It allows us to manage all of the computers in the company quickly. I'm able to push software and updates to all of our computers. We also use it to manage mobile devices, which has been a great help to us.

ManageEngine Desktop Central helps us to manage our servers, laptops, desktops, smartphones, tablets, and other devices from a centralized location. It helps us to automate some of our processes, like patch installations or specific application distribution, service packs or configurations, and customization. We use it on iOS, Android, and Windows devices. Also, we use it to secure and audit our Windows network.

Currently we are using ManageEngine Desktop Central in North America. We use Desktop Central for inventory, software and hardware reporting, remote connecting for end user assistance, and software deployments. We are in the process of deploying an MSP version of Desktop Central that will be used globally in Latin America and Europe as well as North America.

The current use for Desktop Central 9/10 is for user and machine management. It has been great for full access and control of our company's assets. [It's] good for pushing out patches and various updates. There have been some issues when connecting to user machines outside the domain.
